Who Should I Start? Jordan Ta'amu or Zach Wilson

The Minnesota Vikings cut quarterback Jordan Ta'amu on Monday. The Vikings just added Ta'amu at training camp a week ago, but they didn't see enough from him in that limited time to justify keeping him on their final 53-man roster to open the 2023 regular season. Kirk Cousins is the team's obvious starter, with veteran Nick Mullens backing him up and rookie Jaren Hall set to serve as the No. 3 signal-caller. The 25-year-old Ta'amu looked good in the XFL, but he'll now search for another opportunity at the NFL level with a little over a week before Week 1 kicks off.

The Denver Broncos are acquiring former No. 2 overall pick Zach Wilson from the New York Jets on Monday, according to sources. The Broncos are expected to send a 2024 sixth-round pick to the Jets for Wilson and a 2024 seventh-round selection, with the teams dividing his guaranteed camp roster bonus. The Broncos released Russell Wilson this offseason and were heading into this week's NFL draft with Jarrett Stidham as their starter under center in 2024. Wilson now has a much better shot at playing time with a change of scenery in 2024 after being benched in his final season with the Jets, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'll beat out Stidham in training camp. The move to acquire Wilson also won't preclude the Broncos from selecting a QB in this year's draft, possibly as early as the first round.
